About this project

What does Human Encounters add?

Adds hostile humans to your world
They spawn throughout the Overworld in small groups of 2–3, bringing a new kind of threat to your adventures!

Just like players, they can spawn with randomized gear, ranging from gold to diamond, including swords, axes, and bows. Some may even carry enchanted weapons and armor!

These humans don’t just target players—they also fight monsters and illagers (also villagers if enabled in the config file). When low on health, they can eat to heal themselves, and have the possibility to open and close doors while chasing their targets.

You may also encounter them living in a medieval-style house that generate in forest biomes (including modded ones with the is_forest tag).

Epic Knights Integration: Human Encounters now natively supports Epic Knights! When enabled in the configuration file, Humans will spawn fully equipped with armors and weapons from Epic Knights.

Balance Changes: To compensate for the massive stat boost provided by Epic Knights gear, Humans spawning with this equipment will no longer have enchanted items and won't be able to heal themselves (this may be re-evaluated in future updates based on feedback).

Ranger is equiped with light / medium armor. Other humans are equipped with medium / heavy armor (Epic Knight only)

New Entities:

Vandals: Hostile scavengers wandering the lands located in both cold & hot biomes.

The Wanderer: A solitary traveler roaming the world who can be hired for a price (located in villages).

If you have the "Fresh Moves" ressource pack installed, Humans will also have the custom animations from this pack!

This mod is inspired by the Hostile Humans mod. Since it is not available for newer versions, this project aims to bring a similar experience to more recent Minecraft versions, enjoy
